Making great strides with prosthetic leg

By R. SEKARAN
Iron will: Karunakaran proudly standing with his prosthetic leg. He lost his right leg in an accident 13 years ago. — CHAN BOON KAI/The Star

SUNGAI PETANI: He may have cheated death in an accident. But he was unable to save his right leg from the knee down.

Refusing to accept his unfortunate fate on that day in 2011, Karunakaran Muttiah switched to wearing a prosthetic leg, subsequently becoming a long-distance bicycle and mountain trekker.
